Most of us lead busy lives. Sometimes, we bite off more than we can chew, and that’s when we end up feeling frazzled. A reader recently asked whether I have any advice for dealing with stress and, in a nutshell, it’s this: You have to chill out!

Did you know that a good laugh relaxes your muscles for up to forty-five minutes? It also lowers production of the stress hormone cortiso. This is responsible for many symptoms of stress such as headaches, fatigue and sleeping problems. Laughter also releases feel-good hormones called endorphins, which help us feel calm and relaxed.

Are you a karaoke fan or a member of the school choir? Have you noticed how relaxing singing is? When you sing, especially in groups, your body releases not only endorphins but also another hormone called oxytocin. This hormone is related to social bonding and helps relieve the feeling of loneliness that often go hand in hand with stress. Playing with your dog can give you an oxytocin boost too!

I was stolen and almost smashed by a vase.But I don’t think so. I think the money that may be lost is protecting me from disasters.Is it better mood to think so? The second enhance happiness advice is People who cannot control themselves, things affect emotions.For distance someone insult you,don'care and listenabout it.You can't control theirs mouth like they can't control your life.Only one person can control you life,is you.In general ,The most important thing to live a happy life.You should clearly know about what you want or don't want.

Nowadays, teenagers feel stress quite frequently since there's a lot of pressure coming from their school and daily life. Therefore, I suggest two ways to make teenager's life more joyful and salutary.

First, I suggest teenagers to listen to music. Listening to music can have a tremendously relaxing effect on our minds and bodies, especially slow, quiet classical music. This type of music can have a beneficial effect on our physiological functions, slowing the pulse and heart rate. It also lowers blood pressure, and decreasing the levels of stress hormones. As music can absorb our attention, it acts as a distraction at the same time it helps to explore emotions. This means it can be a great aid to meditation and helps to prevent the mind wandering. To sums up, listen to music is a powerful stress management tool in our lives.

Next, I suggest teenagers to communicate with their friends. After doing a research, 2 a.m. conversations with your best friend are not only the brightest spots of your week, but they also have a major and lasting effect on your well-being. They reduce your stress when times are tough because being with a friend during a stressful time reduces levels of the stress hormone cortisol. Your friends being there for cheering you up is helpful too. If your friend shows up at a your house with you favorite drink after you had a killer week at school or sending you a card when you’ve been under the weather makes you both feel better. Its a win-win for both of you guys.

In conclusion, listen to music and talk to friends are two great ways to make teenager's life pleasant and healthier. At last, I hope everyone to be happy and healthy.

Nowadays, people always feel stress in their daily life, when they feel stressed, they would also feel that their life are full of unhappiness and sadness. I found out that three kinds of people would easily feel those stresses from their own life: Adults, students, and teenagers. Maybe you will ask that why these kinds of people will have more stresses than others? Now, let me answer your question.

Have you thought about why I think those people that I've mention may have more stress? The adults would feel stressed are because of their works, families, and their daily lives. If they have children in their home, some of them also have to worry about their children life too. The students and teenagers would feel stress and unhappiness are because they have to worry about their learning, friends relationships and their usually life.

Now, I want to give some suggestion for all people who would feel stress to spread out their unhappiness. Actually, it's not easy to spread out those unhappiness, but if you can find out the best ways which is suitable for yourself to have less unhappiness, you should take it to yourself and use this idea again and again whenever you are happy.

For me, I think listening to some relaxing music and have a walk in outdoor (for an example, go shopping) can let me become happier and get less stress for myself. I suggest that all people should always look on the bright side of life in every time and try to find out a way or a habit which can let you feel relax and be the one who you really are (not to be the one who others what you to become even yourself). It is not a shame to become the one who you  really are, but it is shame to become the one who want you to be.
